Five Paragraph Essay
Fast FoodWhy are people, in recent years, switching to fast food restaurants? Could it be that they purely just enjoy fast food? I believe there are three goals that consumers attempt to balance when deciding what and where to eat. In recent years, consumers have switched to fast food because of social pleasure, eating pleasure, and lifestyle support.

The first goal that consumers attempt to balance when deciding what and where to eat is social pleasure. Consumers gain pleasure and acceptance when eating and interacting socially. In restaurants, people can gather with family members for socialization. Fast food dining also enables people to renew and strengthen friendships. They also dine in restaurants to sometimes celebrate special occasions. Also, fast food dining lends itself to instant satisfaction for hungry children, as well as peer socialization on the indoor playgrounds. For years, business associates have gathered at fast food restaurants for a combination of socialization blended with business interaction. Social pleasure is one reason for adults to dine in fast food restaurants. The second goal that consumers attempt to balance when deciding what and where to eat is eating pleasure. Many of the advertisements on television are aimed at making the fast food appealing to the eye and stomach. Pictures of the product and the satisfied consumer demonstrate the enjoyment found in eating. Also, consumers eat to satisfy their craving for a particular food. This is why the public can see and purchase the diversity of the foods that are

Lochhead 2offered. Eating pleasure includes high quality food designed for taste appeal. If the consumer feels that they are receiving high quality food at a quickened pace, they will continue to come back and keep the cycle going. I believe that eating pleasure is the most important goal in deciding what and where to eat.

...Executive summary
As China's market opening, Chinese fast-food industry is concerned increasingly by foreign businesses. Subway is one of the earlier merchants use franchising way to enter into the Chinese market. Although the Chinese market is huge and full of potential, it also needs to face many threats. Intellectual property issues pose a big threat to the franchising of Subway. China's IPR legal system is not complete. So that Subway should cooperate with the Government, and then have more self-enhance protection of intellectual property. Subway franchising has its own advantage and disadvantage, but I still think it is most suitable business way for Subway in China. Its advantage is better to save money and save time, and it is helpful to conduct business quickly. Meanwhile, the cultural challenge also is a problem for Subway to operate in China. But I believe that through the way of franchising, Subway will be able to cross many obstacles in China, increase market share and become one of Chinese fast-food industry giants.

...Is FastFood the New Tobacco?
When you have a dollar in your pocket for lunch, do you chose the tiny side salad consisting of lettuce and a few vegetables, or a warm, juicy double cheeseburger. The burger will hold you off until dinner and is much more convenient for an employee or student on the go while the salad has the tendency to leave you feeling unsatisfied. The answer seems obvious. We are on the go all the time welcome to 2012, with no time to stop and peel an orange or slice an apple. We need pre-packaged fruit salad for a tasty, convenient, healthy snack. What may not be noted is our “healthy” snack is probably packed in high calorie syrup and added sugar. If you’re counting calories you should check the ingredients… who has time for that? It’s ok, we can justify that by telling ourselves this fruit cup is high in Vitamin A and C and is a good source of dietary fiber. All of these high calorie fastfood options may be convenient, but lead to the overwhelming epidemic of obesity. In Merriam-Webster’s words, epidemic: Affecting or tending to affect a disproportionately large number of individuals within a population, community or region at the same time. Epidemic is used so casually due to the lack of understanding as to the magnitude of the word. This is a serious matter. When discussing the ever increasing epidemic of American obesity, it is important to explore with whom the responsibility might fall...

FastFood Restaurant: McDonald’s
1) McDonald provides self-service facilities to its customers. The customers come to the restaurant, book their order at the order and payment counter.

...which is fueled by fastfood chains worldwide. Fastfood is becoming apart of so many young teens in america that it is crippling the nation's new generation in the long term effects. The fastfood in this country controls the nation’s nutrition, therefore we should encourage these chains to put healthy options on their menus. This will drop obesity rates dramatically.
The problem with fastfood is that it leads to obesity and obesity can have bad long term health effects such as Diabetes, heart failure, and lung issues. When fastfood chains grow the obesity rates in the area tend to go up, when that happens the Diabetes percentage goes up as well. In this study based on two areas it shows that in the Upper East Side, where the median income is 75,000 with a poverty rate of 6.2 percent, only 1 percent have Diabetes. Whereas in Spanish Harlem where income average is 20,000 with a poverty rate of 38.2 percent, 16 percent have Diabetes. This shows how the lower the income people make the more cheap unhealthier choices they are going to make such as fastfood. Also when this occurs you are at an increased risk of Diabetes. Fastfood chains are now advertising their burgers and fries to younger children and getting them hooked on their food for life. “Children...

...Disadvantages of FastFoods
Time is money. This is the new buzzword in today’s world. People are now spending more time by running after money then spending time on their daily activities. No wonder fastfood is on the rise. May people do not realize that fastfood is a slow death. It has many disadvantages, as it is unhealthy, expensive and causes many diseases.
Even though, fastfood is the fastest way to feed our hunger, it is not healthy at all. It is full of saturated and unsaturated fat. Moreover, it is a major source of calories and most of these calories are from fat. Unsaturated fats are good fat. Which means someone can burn this fat overtime through exercise. On the other side, saturated fats are bad fat which cannot be burned and stay in our body. French fries, deep fried chicken and other deep fried foods are the major source of trans fats. Furthermore, it is one of the reasons behind people getting over weight these days. Fastfood is full of sodium. If we look at the nutrients facts on one of our favorite fastfood, we will see the highest percentage of sodium in it. Moreover, sugar is one of the major ingredients of fastfood. Desserts like apple pie and apple with caramel at MacDonald’s, ice cream etc....
